[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would be the same way. FWIW, a Disney cruise is probably going to be the best cruise option out there. If I was going to go on a cruise (ugh) it would be a Disney cruise.[/quote]

100% this.

How many years ago was your cruise? Ships have become more stable. I mean, no, they can't account for terrible weather, but overall sailing is smoother, IMO.

There are also so many seasick products...patches, bracelets/bands, glasses, etc. now compared to even 15 years ago. [/quote]

Oh jeez, it was probably 2005?  So yes a long time ago.

I watched a YouTube video and it does look really nice.  I’m gonna buckle up, get some Zofran & Xanax and make it happen. [/quote]

I also get motion sickness very easily and went on my first cruise this summer (Princess, not Disney). I recommend preemptively taking Dramamine rather than taking it after you feel sick.  I had read somewhere that the days at sea can make you sick because the boat is moving faster.  We only had one of those days on our 7 day cruise and that was the only day I really felt like I was on the water.  I took Dramamine as soon as I woke up and I was fine by the time breakfast was done.[/quote]

I get horrible motion sickness and I agree with this. Don't wait until you feel horrible, just expect that you need it, and take it even on land days. Just take it the entire time you're on the cruise, through one extra day after the cruise ends. I made the mistake of thinking "oh, we'll be in port all day, I don't need dramamine today" and ran for the first pharmacy I could find on land because I was rocking all over the place on dry land! I took the chewable dramamine which didn't make me drowsy at all but also hear that Bonine is better. [/quote]
